Cancun, MX !!

Wow, how that week went by waaaayyy too quickly : )

We had a blast! We did some tours and activities and then we did nothing, which was great too! We went down with friends of ours, Becky and Tom, who also have twins that are 3. No kids, no work, no stress, it was great : )
So here we are on the airplane getting ready to leave BWI. It earlier than any human should be awake, but we were excited to get going.



So after an uneventful flight ( Thank you Lord!) We were there in sunny Mexico!

We went to Chichen-Itza, went shopping, rode ATV's, snorkeled, then while Becky, Tom and I went scuba diving Chris rode the ATV's again : ) Other than that we relaxed by the pool and contemplated our most difficult decision of the day ~ What should we have for dinner? After dinner they had lots of cool shows outside of the hotel lobbies that we went to. Michael Jackson was definitely the most popular night : ) I never imagined a Mexican Michael Jackson could be so good! They also had Karoke, and a Fire Show that were really good. There was also a different drink of the day was really neat so we could try new drinks that we had never heard of before. Here are some fun pics from the week : )

Vacation

Well, we are two days away from a week of nothing to do!! Chris and I are so excited to be heading down to Mexico for the week! This will be the longest we have ever been away from the girls and I think I am starting to get a little anxious. Not because I am worried that anything will happen to them since they are staying in the very capable hands of my in-laws and parents, just because we haven't been away from them for that long and it seems weird to not be taking them with us. I am sure I will adjust just fine when the time comes : ) Chris on the other hand is ready to drop them off somewhere now : P

We will have lots of pictures to post when we get back and will be thinking of all of you while we are gone wishing you were there : )

What a Gorgeous Day!!!

Wow, it was supposed to be a rainy mess today, but it has turned out to be a beautiful day!! After some early morning deals were had at the Mother of Multiples ReSale, we headed outside to get some of that greatly missed sunshine! It was so much fun playing with the girls outside and watching them run with their ride-on cars all over the driveway and up the sidewalk. I am really looking forward to warm weather!

Then the fun turned into "Hey why don't we mulch today?" (hubby)
"Sure???" (wife) was the answer and off we went to find the perfect mulch. Who knew there were so many different kinds and so many different prices also! After a lengthy discussion about which was the perfect one that also fit into the price range we were wanting to spend we finally headed out of the door 20 bags of mulch richer : )

Then the real fun began : ) 20 bags of mulch later I am sitting here wishing I were soaking in the tub with a really sore back, but the deed is done!! I am quite proud of our accomplishment and surprised that we really did use all 20 bags.

So here's to a wonderful spring day!!!! Come back soon : ) !!!

Visiting Poppy!!

Well, as some of you might know, my Dad is in the VA Hospital at Perry Point right now. He has some bad infections in his legs and needs IV Antibiotics and his dressings changed 3 times a day so they are keeping him there until he heals. He has been there for about month and a half now and we try to visit him twice a week to play some games and talk. Here are some pictures from our most recent visit on Sunday.

























My Dad loves seeing the girls and the nurses spoil them something feirce with cookies or jello and juice everytime we come : )

Please pray for my Mom right now as she is playing the role of "single parent" right now to my brother and younger sister that are still living at home. She is starting to run ragged having to take everyone where they have to go before and after she goes to work and still fit in all those mundane everyday details like cleaning and laundry.
